Some questions before buying xenforo.

New member

1. How the future of XenForo (XF) ? Can you guarantee XF will continue to live? I read in some places about copyright issues and legal battle. And I'm afraid it will impact very badly on XenForo especially for costumers.

2. I'm from Indonesia. I do not have a credit card, only have a debit card. Can I buy using a debit card? or can I purchase, by sending money directly through Western Union?

In this economy, NOBODY can give you a guaranty that they will be around forever. I suggest you read about the case if you are worried about it. You will come to the conclusion that it is frivolous and nothing to worry about.

Dodge answered the first one pretty well. Regarding payment, debit card may work depending on the type. For instance, mine is a Visa Debit card and it can be used like a credit card, I use it for all my payments. You can probably look up more about the kind of debit card you have online and see if it can be used as a credit card.

Paypal acts like middle man. You register and give them ways to transfer money from you. It can be from your bank account, or your credit/debit card. There's a process to verify that you really is the owner of the account/card which your bank can help you.

After that, when you buy things online, instead of having to input your credit card information all over the place, your card information is only with Paypal. And paypal will take care of money transaction for you. With a little charge of course.
